West Syrian

Famous quotes containing the words west and/or syrian:

“Because hypocrisy stinks in the nostrils one is likely to rate it as a more powerful agent for destruction than it is.”

“If in that Syrian garden, ages slain,
You sleep, and know not you are dead in vain,
Nor even in dreams behold how dark and bright
Ascends in smoke and fire by day and night
The hate you died to quench and could but fan,
Sleep well and see no morning, son of man.”
—A.E. (Alfred Edward)
